After hearing a lot about VG and fidelity I thought opening an IRA account with VG but gave up after a few try

Why I gave up

1) to open the account they ask for 3 things

Account owner information. Supply each owner's name, birth date, Social Security

 but when you fill this and hit continue you get an error! How difficult that can be. I checked my entry 4 times no success. I have almost 20 on-line accounts (banks and investment included so I know what I am doing)

 For most Vanguard funds, a minimum initial investment of $3,000 per fund to open a Vanguard IRA®.

Most firm allow opening IRA account with as little as $500.

With minimum requirement of $3000 to open an account I find their claim of 'invest as little' base less..sorry
